A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SECURING AN INDUSTRIAL CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention relates to systems and methods for securing control of industrial processes. The present invention provides a secure distributed control system used for controlling industrial processes. The system comprises a plurality of field devices, a controller module which includes a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) module including control logic for one critical process and a master processor including control logic of all other industrial processes and an Input Output module for exchanging signals between the field devices and the controller module. The present invention also provides a method of securing a distributed control system used for controlling industrial processes, against modification of a control logic using the system of the present invention.
